Hi there — My daughter was conceived when I was on the mini pill. I didn't know until I was 10 weeks pregnant that I was even pregnant, since I didn't have a period on the pill. That particular time in my life I was working at a museum and had repeated events with wine. I think in about a 3 week period over the holidays, I drank more wine on a day to day basis than I ever have before! I was never drunk or anything but had 1-2 glasses of wine every day or every other day for about 3-4 weeks. My daughter turned 10 today and hasn't a problem in the world. She's a lovely, bright daughter. (That being said, no mom's out there should drink intentionally of course!) Good luck to you!
